Glucose is a polar molecule due to its multiple hydroxyl groups, which create polar bonds. The polarity of glucose plays a essential role in biological processes such as energy metabolism.
Glucose is a polar molecule; its transport across plasma membranes is facilitated largely via the SLC2 family of 13 glucose transporters (Glut). Brain tissues express 8 Glut isoforms, two of which, namely Glut1 and Glut3, are believed to handle the majority of glucose uptake in the brain [...
Recombinant PfGluPho (0.4 mg/mL) was added to a reaction mixture containing 0.05 M Tris (pH 7.5), 3.3 mM MgCl2, 0.005% Tween 20, 1 mg/mL BSA and the substrates NADP+ (20 mM, Cayman) and glucose 6-phosphate (G6P, 25 mM, Sigma)...
Renal proximal tubular cell fibronectin accumulation in response to glucose is polyol pathway dependent. Background. Thickening and reduplication of the tubular basement membrane have been reported as early events in diabetic nephropathy. In this study, we have examined the polar requirements of proximal...

Here we profile metabolic changes conferred by SARS-CoV-2 infection in kidney epithelial cells and lung air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures, and show that SARS-CoV-2 infection increases glucose carbon entry into the TCA cycle via increased pyruvate carboxylase expression. SARS-CoV-2 also reduces ...
With regard to central carbon metabolism, components of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle were completely represented in all the genomes. Key enzymes of the Entner–Doudoroff (ED) pathway and the pentose phosphate (PP) pathway, such as glucose-6-phosphate 1-dehydrogenase (zwf, K00036) and glu...

Misinterpretation of behaviors in children and are innervated by the high risks to both subjective response of serum glucose, bicarbonate, anion gap, with a small percentage of tbsa affected is estimated. The new focus on issues of the...
While this ‘entry guard’ is a small, polar threonine in CDK4/6, it is a large positively charged lysine in CDK1/2/3/5, possibly leading to repulsion of the compound. Since other compound-interacting residues in the kinase active site are broadly similar, we suggest that this entry ...
